Why is my family so fucked up?

My sister is a freak, into scarification, piercing, as am I. My best friend just got married to my niece, my older brother (40) is hooked up with his 20 year old anamorata, my dad is a bishop in the anglican church, and now I am a grand-uncle to 2 kids.

Speak to me of your fucked up't family, and make me feel better, because I can't fathom my fucked up life anymore

and don't comment on my grammar, I'm wasted

yours sounds pretty normal, actually.

I just found out my father died nine years ago of a heroin overdose and had been living in old town in Portland. He might have died on Dec 3rd or 4th but no one knows because he was alone in his shitty apt.

He also had a seriously messed up liver from his years of alcohol abuse and lived his life as your typical drunken indian.

He became a statistic and reinforced what most people already think of our people.

Thanks Gerald.

My family is shockingly normal. Although I suspect my parents have some issues tucked out of sight somewhere.

oh, and i haven't spoken to my mother in seven years because they stole thousands of dollars from me. my stepfather is a severe alcoholic. my real dad grows his own. he's actually pretty cool.

Neither me or my mom know if my dad is my dad or my uncle is my dad cuz she slept with both at around the same time.

aaand... my mom also screwed my credit SO bad i cant even get a bank account. Um...

oh theres other stuff but im not wasted.

help much?

If, by issues, you mean "Hookers" and by out of sight, you mean "in the crawlspace," call 911.

My family is one of those families that pretends to be the best family in the world but is secretly evil. Watch American Beauty. THAT IS MY FAMILY.

but wait, there's more...

my mother is a control freak(as are all mothers, i suppose), my dad is a raging pervert at heart, my other niece is married to another control freak(just had a baby), my friend just killed himself with draino and pills(took 3 days to die, hooked up to machines to keep him alive for some fucked up reason), and my

eh, this is turning into a pity party

I shouldn't have started this thread, it's just depressing me more

*runs away to silliness thread*

every family has issues. some are just more apparent than others.


my dad cheated on my mom with a 24 year old. mom divorced him. he is still with said 24 year old... they have been together for 5 years now. he doesn't want to marry her cause he doesn't want to start another family, but he refuses to tell her this cause then she will leave him. then he lost his job as a chemical engineer and decided to move to our cottage in greece and no grows olive trees for a living and bathes only in the ocean.

he also has no concept of empathy. which is weird and terribly akward.


and last time i talked to him. he told me he has my life planned out.
married in 6 months, kids in a year.

My best friend has that 'Roseanne' type of family. i am extremely jealous.

there needs to be a green-eyed smiley for envy.

My mum is a psychotic whore who manipulates every man she meets into having sex with her, so they'll support her. She is currently faking chronic fatigue syndrom so she can claim incapacity benefit. She screwed my dad over big time. I'm a druggy underachieving loser, my sister cuts her arms to ribbons, my little brother is 13 and already proving himself capable of shocking bouts of random violence and my other brother is a fabulous gay man. My dad's totally normal. hehe

my parents are...

dude... spoilers?

They fuck you up, your mum and dad.
They may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you with the faults they had
And add some extra, just for you.

But they were fucked up in their turn
By fools in old-style hats and coats,
Who half the time were soppy-stern
And half at one another's throats.

Man hands on misery to man.
It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don't have any kids yourself.

- Philip Larkin, "This Be The Verse"
